Grimké (Angelina E.) is born in Charleston, South Carolina.

The daughters of slaveowners, Angelina Grimké and her sister, Sarah Grimké, are educated at home, move to Philadelphia in the 1820s, and become Quakers, abolitionists, and feminists. They first come to Boston to lecture in 1837, move to New Jersey, after Angelina marries Theodore Weld in 1838, then return and move to a house near today’s 210 Fairmount Avenue. Angelina dies in Hyde Park on October 26, 1879.
